Solskjaer Has Already Made His Best Manchester United Signing

Ole 'Ugonna' Solskjaer has already made his best signing according to former player, Paul Parker.

Parker, who donned the United shirt between 1991 and 1996, believes Solskjaer has made a perfect choice which is crucial to United's improvement going forward.

In an interview with talkSPORT, Paul Parker stated; "Mike Phelan may be the best signing the Manchester United have made, him coming back, he should never have been allowed to leave in the first place when David Moyes came in. That was a massive mistake by David Moyes.

"But he's back now and someone like him, who worked with Sir Alex and knows about the club as well, it is as important off the pitch as it is on it.

"Micky Phelan makes the big, big difference sitting next to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Phelan seems the most vocal in the technical area? Oh, without a doubt."

'Igwe' Ferguson's former right-hand man returned with Solskjaer after Jose Mourinho was relieved of his duties on December 18, 2018.

Phelan left the club when 'Oga Davido' Moyes was brought in to replace Ferguson after he retired in 2013.

Phelan is already proving to be a vital part of Solskjaer's management staff and has been seen on the touchline barking at players to 'ginger their swagger' as the Norwegian stays sat in the dug out.




And while United's 'tear rubber' management staff comprising of Solskjaer, Mike Phelan, 'Ichie' Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna have overseen five wins out of five, Phelan believes the toughest test will come this weekend as United face Spurs at Wembley.

"There are lots of areas of the game we can improve on. That's the beauty of it now. We can actually analyse the games that we have played and sometimes we have been fantastic going forward and a little bit sloppy defending," Phelan told Stadium Astro after the win against Newcastle.

"But the players now know both sides of the coin so we can work on that now and that will be our intention leading up to the Tottenham game because that will be a different test.

Whatever be the case, may the ministry continue its movement to the permanent site with a win against Spurs come this weekend.
